Costa Rica Summer Program: Spanish and Tropical Biology
Sessions
About
Join us to learn more about a brand-new summer program launching in summer 2027, which will allow students to spend 5.5 weeks in Costa Rica, studying Spanish language/culture and Tropical Biology. The program, developed in collaboration with the prestigious Organization for Tropical Studies, links intensive language or culture learning (at different levels) and homestays with a unique opportunity to experience the wonders of Costa Rica’s rainforests and cloud forests first-hand. Students conduct their own research to study how animals and people are adapting to our changing world. The first half of the program takes place in the capital city, San José; students then move to La Selva Research Station and Heliconias Lodge in the second half to conduct field-based research projects. Students must have completed SPN 002 or equivalent prior to participation on the program.
